Me too. I was hitting man-sized targets consistently on the range at 600m with the SLR. Not 100% accuracy or head shots every time, sure, but regular centre-of-seen-mass hits at 600m weren't all that difficult. Rain or shine, still air or gusts, 7.62 maintained good accuracy in all conditions. I'd shoot 7.62 over 5.56 any day.
